Keep in mind the the word "percent" translates to "for each 100." 25% can be read as "25 for each 100," which has the fractional representation 
and the decimal representation 0.25. All of these representations are just different ways of writing the same value.
Note too that the fraction can be reduced to 
, so what the question is really asking is: 1/4 of what number is 9?
Well, if we know that 1/4 of the number is 9, we can easily find how large the whole number is by finding all 4/4 of it (the <em>whole</em> number)<em /><em />, or 4 x 9, which multiplies out to 36.

Answer:
%35 of them were in color
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 30 percent of the first 200 sold were in color, 200x30/100 = 60 of them were in color.
Since 20 percent of the next 300 sold were in color, 300x20/100 = 60 of them were in color.
Since 90 percent of the last 100 sold were in color, 100x90/100 = 90 of them were in color.
In total, 60 + 60 + 90 = 210 out of 600 were in color.
The percentage is: =
→ x =
= 35
